TRAVEL TIPS WHEN TO GO

VISAS & PASSPORTS

Summer is the most popular travel time because the weather is warm – ideal for the beach – and the atmosphere is festive. Attractions and accommodation can be busy at this time.

TIME

There is never a bad time to visit New Zealand. However, because the country is large and long, the climate can be wildly different between the north and the south.

A valid passport is required with at least three months validity beyond the intended stay. Australian residents do not require a visa for entry into New Zealand. Travel advice is available from the Australian Government at smartraveller.gov.au.

New Zealand is 2 hours ahead of Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST). Daylight Saving Time is observed from September to April where their clocks are turned forward by 1 hour.

Spring and autumn are quieter and the weather is beautiful. If you’re in the north near Auckland, you’ll still be wearing shorts. In the south, the nights will be cool but the days will be pleasant and the scenery will be stunning. This is a great time for hiking.

ELECTRICITY

230V 50Hz. No adapter required.

In winter, the South Island can be very cold, making it perfect for a snow holiday in the mountains.

NORTHLAND & BAY OF ISLANDS TOURS THE CREAM TRIP – DAY IN THE BAY Board the Fullers Great Sights vessel at Paihia Wharf for The Cream Trip Day Cruise. Follow the path of the original 1927 ‘Cream Trip’ as you meander in and out of the many picturesque bays calling on the locals, delivering their supplies, groceries and mail. The leisurely pace means you’ll get up close to wildlife – look for seals or whales and endless bird and fish life. You’ll also see natural wonders such as the Black Rocks – unusual volcanic formations and Marsden Cross, where the first Christian sermon was held in New Zealand back in 1814. Arrive at Cape Brett Lighthouse, venture through the Hole in the Rock and take in the majestic Grand Cathedral Cave before heading back into the sheltered waters of the Bay. You can buy hot and cold drinks and cold food on board or grab a snack at the café on Urupukapuka Island (extra charge). Ninety years on, the Cream Trip cruise is still the best way to see the Bay.
